About the Book

Series: The Spinster ChroniclesGenre: Adult, New Adult, RomancePublisher: Phase PublishingPublication date: November 1, 2018
Poor, unfortunate Spinster…
Prudence Westfall, spinster, has unexpectedly had the greatest
misfortune of all: she has inherited a fortune, and is now an heiress.
But as a Spinster, and a stammering shy one, nothing could be worse than
having a bevy of suitors pay her attention. Opportunity strikes at a
house party when the most unlikely person offers the perfect solution.
Camden Vale is no gentleman, and he’s not prone to saving anyone, but
something about Prue changes all that. When his offer to befriend her
extends beyond the house party, and his feelings extend beyond
expectation, no one is more surprised than he. Except, perhaps, for the
other Spinsters, and they have much to say on the subject.

Review

The main characters in The Spinster and I, Prue and Camden, are different and compatible. It was interesting how their complexities and different experiences in life were able to merge into a relationship. It was a fun, enjoyable book. It was hard to put the book down. The characters' reactions and conversations made the story move rather quickly. The villains in the story were harsh and memorable. They were easy to dislike and the descriptions of their actions were well-written. I would highly suggest that if you enjoy Regency Romances that you read this story. The only downside is that this story isn't really a stand-alone story. In order to follow along easily, you should read the first book in the series The Merry Lives of Spinsters. The Merry Lives of Spinsters was a little boring and a slow read for me, however, I loved The Spinster and I. I couldn't put the book down and needed to know what happened in the story before bed so I read the end and then went back through and read the rest the next day. It's a must read!To learn more, click here.
